Customer Question

I have a pair...

I have a pair of old porcelain horn of plenty rose flowers trimmed in gold flower vase. I've had them for over 40 years. Made in Italy. I want to know the value .

Expert's Assistant: I always love having an appraiser look at my stuff. Sometimes its turned out to be surprisingly valuable. Tell us what else you do know and the Antiques Appraiser will be able to better assist you.

They have pink and gray leaves on a vine on the front, with gold trimming on the top, around the base.

Expert's Assistant: Is there anything else the Antiques Appraiser should be aware of?

The leaves have gold running through them , and they are 12 inches tall.
